One.. Ha.. Ha.. Ha..

Nearly finished Flyrant number one. Loving watching this bad boy come together despite being so much surface area to paint. Knowing that I've got three more to pain, then two Harpies and a Crone make me sad inside but right now that's irrelevant.

He's still a handsome beast!

..she?

The flying circus approaches

Finally finished assembling my third flyrant last night as I was awaiting some wings for it; I've reposed it ever so slightly, which was a massive pain, but I'm happy with the results. A little GS required followed by undercoating! I'm getting there, slowly but surely!

Also in the snap are a few bits I'll be using for my bases as previously mentioned. Coffee stirrer pallets and paper oil drums. Exciting or what..

Tonight's progress.

Albeit not a lot, I've managed to get a few coats of grey into the wings of one of my Flyrants this evening. Not a lot, but still an hours work or so! Also started some DIY barrels too for my bases, from a guide I found on Pintrest.

Brief, but productive!

For the greater good.

Tonight was a tad annoying, yet at the same time ever so productive. I've more or less finalised my scheme as the last discrepancy was wings.. I've decided to have two ways of doing the membranes, with a quick/easy way for Gargoyles and a more involved way for my FMCs.

Gargoyles will be washed uniformly, then again with red in order to give the membrane look.  FMCs will have a codex grey coat before washing. I am cheating with the washes, but they do look ever so good; I don't particularly fancy layering 6x pairs of FMC wings and I feel the same way about wet blending!

Alas, progress for this evening, including one of the gargoyles that needs to be stripped and repainted; Poor 'lil fella.

So close, yet so far..

Pictures to follow, but I've now got 1,450 points more or less modelled and built. I need to finish a Hive Tyrant with a good dose of green stuff and make some Meiotic spores to be as tall as Mucolids, but I'm nearly there.  I also managed a brief game against one of my friends; it's the first time either of us have played 7th and we loved it, even if the Eldar did blow me to bits.

Now just another 1,050 points to purchase and model before the painting commences.

Thus far 45 Gargoyles, 2 Mucolids, 3 Flyrants, 2 Harpies and a Crone; It's like a flying circus!

Wish me luck!
